You should just be able to click on the two separted icon in the top left hand corner and they should mount unless your ship can't handle those weapons.

I'm flying a liberty defender and I have two gun slots open- I want to mount two Xeno Scorpion guns. I tried clicking on them, tried double clicking, dragging,etc. I dont get it

You would lose money doing this, but you could sell them to a dealer and then buy them back. When you buy them they should equip automatically.

I've tried that too!!! but the guns disapear from the dealer's inventory when you sell them!!

John is correct. It's a simple matter of entering the equipment dealer screen, clicking on the 'mounted' icon (looks like joined puzzle pieces)on the top left of the mounted gun graphic to unmount. Then scroll down the list to the item you want to mount, click on the 'unmounted' icon (puzzle peices apart) and the weapon is mounted. You'll hear a "Mounting" VO and effect too. Which is kinda neat

Also, since weapons don't seem to take up cargo space you can just leave your old ones unequipped until you're sure you want to sell. I often do this when trying out similar weapons. Not sure if the weapon space is unlimited, but it's definitely large.

duh! well for some reason it wasnt working- now it does- sweet!!!

hmm... I'm pretty sure that even if you wanted to sell them and buy them back, the weapons always stay. Even if the planet doesn't originally sell them. Make sure your ship can handle the level of weapons too, or else it won't equip

The documentation for being able to mount and/or use weps is not good. Especially with regards to the 'class' of weapon it is. I tractor up a lot of weps I cant use presumably because I am too low of character level or I cant mount weapons beyond a certain class on a given hardpoint. But when you look at the weapon in the cargo screen, it doesnt give a specific reason as to why there is no mount icon.
